The New York Knicks honor Derrick Rose as he retires after 16 impactful seasons in the NBA. Originally drafted first overall by the Chicago Bulls in 2008, Rose quickly ascended to stardom, winning Rookie of the Year and capturing an MVP title in the 2010-11 season.
However, his career took a devastating turn in 2012 when he tore his ACL during the playoffs, which hindered his performance thereafter. Rose's journey included stints with the Knicks, Cleveland Cavaliers, Minnesota Timberwolves, and Detroit Pistons, ultimately concluding with the Memphis Grizzlies.
Despite not securing a Hall of Fame legacy, his achievements, including three All-Star selections and an MVP award, speak volumes about his contributions to basketball. Rose retires having made significant impacts in every team he played for.
